  Hi,

  I'm having problems connecting to the my MS SQL Server 2005 express Edition. I have already enabled remote connection to the server, disable my firewall and started the Browser Service, but still my client is unable to find the SQL Server. My client is MS SQL client 2000.

  Anyone there who could help me out? I really need to get this running ASAP. Thanks.

  What do you mean by SQL Client 2000? If you mean Enterprise Manager that ships with SQL 2000, you can't use it to manage a SQL 2005 database.
